Canon USA shipping out the R5 this week

There is confirmation from users that Canon USA seems to have confirmed what they have been saying, is that there is no long term hold on R5's and they are continuing to ship as inventory arrives.  Several users are mentioning that Canon USA has charged their credit cards and that their R5 cameras are expected to ship shortly.  It appears as if the second wave of R5's has arrived on the north american shores.

Also, other chain retailers such as best buy are also receiving stock at this time, however, you will have to watch their site as stock will appear and quickly be gone.

B&H is still showing limited quantity notice and unknown shipping time - most likely because they have far more preorders to sort through before they handle web-based sales.
